Adolescents' Knowledge and Attitudes Towards NCDs: the Impact of a Novel Preventive School-Based Approach.
Article in Prevention science : the official journal of the Society for Prevention Research, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The relevance of addressing the burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) through school-based approaches targeting early-life risk factors is widely acknowledged, yet evidence on their large-scale implementation and effectiveness remains limited. Students aged 14-15 (n = 176) were surveyed for their knowledge, skills, and attitudes regarding NCDs. The questionnaire dealt with the cognitive, affective, and social influences on personal-level decisions. A two-arm quasi-experimental design with baseline and postmeasurement was employed; cases were exposed to a novel school-based approach developed under the Partnerships for Science Education (PAFSE) project; controls were exposed to the topic through traditional teaching-learning methods. The results support that the PAFSE model, based on an open-schooling framework, educational scenarios, and project-based learning, enhanced students' skills and knowledge about NCDs. The findings may inform integrated school policies that support teachers and offer valuable guidance for effective implementation of PAFSE preventive intervention in educational systems.
